Castles in County Carlow

"Lyrath was a gem! Beautiful inside and out, the staff was very accommodating. The grounds were beautiful and our room was more than spacious and comfortable. Would definitely return and plan some “downtime” just to enjoy the hotel’s amenities!"

"We spent one night here on our way from Dublin to Kilkenny. The staff were prompt and very polite. The location is rural, but the facility is top notch. A grand staircase greets you as you enter the main lobby. As a group, we occupied three rooms. Our only issue was the lack of room air conditioning (but iist say the temps while we visited were the highest in almost 80 years). The rooms are equipped with an energy saving feature, you must place a room key in a wall mounted to activate any in room power or lighting. If your remove the key card to exit the room all lights and wall power turn off. This was not a problem once we figured out how it worked. We had two room keys, so if a person remained in the room, the spare key allowed them to watch television and have lighting."

"We had an excellent one night stay here - and a fun time in town - it’s a little bit of a walk into town but nice - would recommend for a visit to Waterford"

"Convenient location by town center. Easily reachable by bus. Would def stay again. "

"Lovely stay highly recommend "

"The location is fantastic. Very close to all the bars and nightlife but not in the noise of it. Staff were very helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was huge, (could have included beans though).. Only downside was the shower curtain. It just stuck to you when using the shower making it uncomfortable. "

"Will definitely stay here again if in Kilkenny in the future. Staff very kind and helpful. Parking secure on property and convenient. Bar and restaurant great service and food. Location is perfect to get to everything."

"Excellent staff "

"I had a great stay! The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as listed. The location was convenient, and everything I needed was available. The host was very welcoming, which made the experience even better. I’d definitely stay here again."
